Standard Distance: 5k run, 35k bike, 5k run

Sprint Distance: 2.5k run, 17.5k bike, 2.5k run

The Duathlon National Championship features a paraduathlon wave. The paraduathlon wave serves as the Paraduathlon National Championship.

This year USA Triathlon will introduce a Sprint distance. There will be a Sprint open wave geared toward beginner duathletes. This is a chance for athletes to test the sport in a friendly environment without having to be intimidated by superior athletes. Athletes competing in the open division will not be eligible for national championship titles or awards.

NO ELITE WAVE
In 2012 there will NOT be an Elite Duathlon wave. The 2012 Elite Duathlon National Championship is in Pelham, Alabama on March 24, 2012. The Elite Duathlon National Championship will be partnered with the Powerman Alabama race. CLICK HERE to view the 2012 Elite Duathlon National Championship website.
